| To-day, Wednesday, Jan. 10th
occurred one of those pleasant event
that will happen in every eommuni
ty and that from time immemoria
has taken place in every well regll
Hated family. We allude to tn
marriage of Miss Nellie Murphy, 0
Arena, Wisconsin, to Mr.. Louis G
0chsenreiter, prominent bushes
man of this city, at Mazomanie
Wis. Advices from there inform
us that a large and brilliant com
pany assembled to witness the cere
mony, comprising the friends of th,
contracting parties from a distanc,
and the beauty, elite and fashion O
the city where the ceremony wa
performed. The ceremony tool
place in st Barnabas church IN Ma
zominae, Rev. Father Mensing, O
this city, officiating.
The bride is spoken OF by those
who know her best, as woman oil
more than ordinary good sense and
earnestness of purpose and one who
will grace and make pleasant the
home over which she is soon to pre-.
side.
The groom, familiarly known to
our people as "Bismarck," has been
identified with the business interests
Of Webster ever since it was town.
During the last four or five years he
has been associated with Mr.. An
drew Small, under the firm name OF
0chsenreiter 4 Small, in conduct
ing the pioneer hardware business
of Day county. The first two years
of his residence here, besides con-
Quoting his business, he ably and
satisfactorily filed the office of
county treasurer. Such has been
the energy and activity of the firm,
they have, by careful attention to
business, achieved an enyiatle po-
sltion in the business world and laid
up good, healthy bank account
Tor rainy day. Mr. Ochsenreiter
is man of indomitable energy, a
straightforward, thorough-going
business man, whose word is as good
as his bond (the reputation of the
firm, by the way, whose integrity
of character stands unimpeached.
Being one of a large family he was
early compelled to begin the hattie
of life, and before he reached the
age of 10 he was the prop and stay
of his aged and widowed mother.
Having risen from the humble walks
of life, from the errend boy and the
by the sheer force of
will, pluck energy and
ability to his present proud position
among his fellows, his record, run
ming through all these years, is one
of which he and his friends may
feel justly proud. Such man
who gave the lions share of his
seanty earnings to his mother for
her support. glad and proud Of his,
ability TO aid her by the practice Of
rigid economy-unitcd to the girl
of his choice, will naturally seek her
welfare and happiness equal with
his own and rightly enjoy the bless
ings Of the married state.
Well, we trust that the JOY OF the
happy pair, like the still water, may
run deep in the channel of their
lives, that as each year is added to
its span, JOY and content may al
ways find it pleasant to linger at
their fireside, that when the boar
frost of years has silyered their locks
aud they have reached the fruition
Of love that has smoothly glided
through the tide of years, that they
may look back from the calmer
serenity Of age, over happy, useful
life, auchas their children's children
to the latest generation may regard
with pride, JOY and happy satisfac-
ton. Truly the poet says:
There is no life on earth but being in love,
There are no studies. no delights or business,
No intercourse OF soul with soul
But what Is love.
The treasureTs OF the deep are not so precious,
1t is benediction, kiss that hangs upon the lip
As sweet as morning dew upon the rose.
This win be a dandy year for
tnrnips. Farmers should see to it
that they are poled early in the sea-
son, so that the clusters may ripen
more rapidly in the genial sunshine.
String beens ought to be dug this
year rs early as the first of July if
possible, and each bean should be
hung up in the smoke house to dry
before being lald away. In raising
and pumpkins, each farme
mould have an Indian pony, mount
ed with a boy provided with a lasso,
with orders to lasso the vines
very time they get on a stampede
to prevent the fruit from being
5hreshed out of the shell before it il
fairly ripe. Hay should be planted
N ridges, the same as sweet potatoes
great care should be taken t.
eep the vines properly trimmed,
otherwise the timothy might get
mixed with the clover, in which,
case there would be big row befor
they could be separated. In put
ting in sod wheat you should tax,
an ak and cut trenches in the sol
and then SOW the kernels about six
inches apart. The great trouble
with this kind of wheat is, that il
don't have enough 'stool' to get OF
md consider in what direction it il
oest to spread. Cattle should be
sown with drill and then narrowed
init makes the trees a great dea
more thrifty. In setting out boy
the ground should be thorough,
meltzed before transferring them
from the hot-bed to the garden
Other useful hints on agriculture
will suggest themselves to us from
